Tread wear indicators are built into the origi-
nal equipment tires on your vehicle to help
you know when your tires should be replaced.
Many states have laws requiring that you
replace your tires at this point.
These indicators are molded into the bottom
of the tread grooves and will appear when the
tire tread is worn down to 1/16 inch
(1.6 mm).
When the bands appear next to one another in
two or more places, replace your tires.

To even out the wear on your tires and make
them last longer, Mitsubishi Motors Corpora-
tion recommends that you rotate your tires at
the mileage listed in the “WARRANTY AND
MAINTENANCE MANUAL”.
However, the timing for tire rotation may
vary according to your vehicle condition,
road surface conditions, and your own per-
sonal driving habits. Any time you notice
unusual wear, rotate your tires as soon as pos-
sible.
When rotating tires, check for uneven wear,
damage, and wheel alignment. Abnormal
wear is usually caused by a wrong tire pres-
sure, wheels that are not aligned properly,
wheels that are out-of-balance, or severe
braking.
Check with an authorized Mitsubishi Motors
dealer or a repair facility of your choice to
find out the reason for uneven tread wear.
The first tire rotation is the most important
one. It will allow all your tires to wear evenly.

A compact spare tire can be installed tempo-

sequence.
